Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Creamy cleanser( low level of PH) will be good for skin that is dry and for part of your skin that is oily(nose) foaming cleanser will be good. But use moisturizer later. I hope this proved helpful.

I am 28 yr old female and suffering from extreme dry skin on body and face. Plus dullness, acne and dark spot occurred recurrent on face.
Female | 28
Acne, dullness, and dark spots can be annoying on the dry face. These symptoms may be a result of different factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, or environmental influences. To make your skin better use soft soap for washing, cream for moisturizing and every day wear sunscreen. Moreover keeping to healthy eating habits, drinking enough water and stress control can have a positive impact onto skin. If this doesn't help, visit a dermatologist.

My age is 27 .I have acne problem for around 10 yrs..Can i take tretinoin tablet 5mg lifelong on a daily basis..this stops my acne breakouts but if i stop it again my acne starts coming again. Is it ok to take any tablets on a daily basis to prevent acne breakouts
Male | 25
Acne is red bumps on the skin. It is common for young people like you. Acne happens when skin makes lots of oil and gets blocked. Taking tretinoin tablets for a long time is not a good idea. It is better to find why the skin gets bumps. Maybe try new skin routines with dermatologist's help.

I have itchy buttons all over my body . It started over a month ago but they were unnoticeable and now it’s getting worse it’s all over my back and belly and arms
Female | 20
Eczema might be the condition causing those itchy bumps. This skin issue can worsen over time due to things like dry skin or allergies. To ease the itchiness, apply a gentle moisturizer and resist scratching the bumps. However, if they spread or don't improve, consulting a dermatologist for evaluation and treatment would be wise.

Acne is one of the most prevalent skin problems, and it can be treated in several ways. For an accurate and tailored treatment plan, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

Hello, I am suffering from Alopecia areta at my sideburns. It started around 2006, by now I've lost them completely. A doctor from Solapur had injected in that area twice, still, hair didn't grow. Kindly suggest what can be a guaranteed solution at a reasonable price?
These are your treatment options for hair loss: Biotin tablets, PRP treatment, minoxidil lotion.
I wouldn't recommend hair weaving.
But virtual platform has restrictions, thus I would further encourage you to reach out to me, or other specialists and this page will help - Dermatologists.
Let the team know if you have any location-specific requirements.

I am 17yrs old and I don’t knw what is wrong with my eye section I got a huge bumb right above my eye lashes
Male | 17yrs
It sounds like you may have a stye. A stye is a red, painful lump situated near the eyelid's edge. People may suffer swelling, tenderness, and at times even pus formation. Generally, bacteria are responsible for causing styes when they invade the oil glands around the eyelids. You should administer warm compresses to your eye several times every day without squeezing or bursting the infected area to treat it. It might be wise to consult an eye specialist if no improvement occurs, or the condition deteriorates.

Hi..doc..my is my toungue very dry and sour..and also my penis head ia dry too..i have try anti fungal pill and cream..it doesnt work also..is it seriious..what should i do..?
Male | 52
These symptoms can sometimes be caused by conditions like dehydration, oral thrush, or even a skin condition. It's nice that you took the anti-fungal medicine, however, if it did not work, there might be another problem. Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist so they can evaluate your symptoms and give you the most appropriate advice and treatment. Also, this thing can be relieved by water intake which is very important in this.

I'm getting more pimples and marks on my face nowadays
Female | 23
This problem is called acne which is common among many people. It is caused by clogging of hair follicles with oil and dead skin cells. At times, hormonal changes or genetics can also contribute to its occurrence. To clear up your skin, you can wash it gently using your hands only. Avoid scrubbing too hard as this could worsen the condition. Select non-comedogenic moisturizers that won’t block pores while keeping the face hydrated throughout the day. Alternatively, consult with a dermatologist for further advice on how best to treat this.

Iam 20 years old female. I want to know why I loss upto about 8-10 eyebrows hair daily. Is eyebrow hair falling is normal or not. What should I do to stop it?
Female | 20
Some hair on the eyebrows falls out each day as part of the natural hair growth cycle, which involves transitions through the growth, resting, and slipping phases. Causes such as anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, uneven hormone levels, or too much plucking might cause hair to fall out excessively. In order to foster the development of healthy hair, consider eating a nutrient-rich diet, drinking water, and not using products that can harm your hair such as perming and coloring. If the hair vasculature starts to thin or you get areas, or the hair loss remains, it is best to see a medical professional.

I am 15, I have rashes caused by insect bites on my arms, legs and face for over one year now, what should I do
Male | 15
Insect bites often lead to red, itchy rashes that can be quite annoying. These rashes are usually allergic reactions from your body. To relieve the itching, try using a soothing cream or lotion, and avoid scratching to prevent infection. Wearing long sleeves and using insect repellent can help reduce the risk of future bites. If the rash persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

i randomly got a red lump on my upper back . it’s red but it does not hurt . it’s swore and there’s like a black hole in the middle of it too . it’s also pretty warm . i would think it’s a blackhead but i’m not exactly sure
Male | 24
It seems like you could be suffering from what is known as folliculitis, or skin abscess. These usually start as red lumps that are painful when touched and often contain pus inside. They are caused by bacteria entering the body through cuts on the skin but can also occur near hair follicles if they become infected. It’s important not to try and squeeze them because this could push the infection further into your system; instead, apply a warm flannel or hot water bottle wrapped in a towel over the area several times a day which should help draw out any trapped matter. If this issue continues, you can visit a dermatologist.

I think I have accidentally been consuming evening primrose oil for the skin thinking it was a food supplement
Female | 44
Evening primrose oil isn't harmful to the skin, but accidentally consuming it might cause mild stomach issues like nausea or diarrhea. It's not serious, so just stop using it and drink plenty of water to help flush it out. If you feel very uncomfortable, consult a dermatologist for advice.

My Grandmother is Bedridden for past 4 years. For past 1 month she is having Bedsores in between the shoulder blades which measures around 5×5 cm. Initially we did dressing and it healed leaving a black scar. But for past 2 days we noticed pus discharge from one edge of the scar with foul smell. Inside the scar it is fluctuant. My questions are :- 1. Do we have to remove the entire scar and do the dressing or through the opening in the edge of the scar irrigating and giving antibiotic wash along with betadine gauze packing in the abscess cavity is enough? 2. To prevent further bed sores which bed is good? Water bed or Air Bed?
Female | 92
As for the wound, it is crucial to clean it well and cover it with antibiotic gauze. This is the way it can be healed. Concerning the prevention of further sores, both water beds and air beds are useful by alleviating the pressure on her skin. Be sure to move her body every so often so that she doesn't get too much pressure in one spot. This will also help to prevent more bedsores.

Hello, I’m 24 years old and would like to know if I have to be concerned using an aluminum based antiperspirant
Female | 24
It's natural to be anxious over the question of whether aluminum compounds used in antiperspirants are safe for your health. Some are jittery about the information they read which might suggest there is a health issue. However, the majority of studies confirm that there is no such evidence of the relationship between antiperspirants with aluminum and health risks. If you notice any itching, rash, or irritation, try switching to an aluminum-free option.

It sounds like you may have acne and skin condition like seborrheic dermatitis. To manage these conditions wash your face twice a day with a gentle cleanser. Avoid touching your face, use noncomedogenic skincare products, try acne treatments, and use a moisturizer. If the symptoms are severe, consult a dermatologist for specialized treatment.

No matter whether it's HSV-1 or HSV-2 can cause ulcers or blisters around your mouth or genitals as is the case with other sexually transmitted diseases. In these areas, you may experience burning, itching, or discomfort. Said viruses are easily transmitted through physical contact like kissing or intercourse. If it's herpes, get help from a dermatologist because they will diagnose and treat you.
